San Antonio River Walk

Downtown San Antonio just completely brightens up when you drop down from the street to the River Walk. Mariachis...margaritas...romantic bridges...an awesome ice cream shop...explore and enjoy it!! It's unlike anywhere else. Food-wise, I would recommend visiting Boudros. Bar-wise, Esquire. Experience-wise, take a river barge down the river and get a tour and dinner.

Howeverrr--if the crowded downtown portion of the riverwalk gets too overwhelming, keep walking north! The crowds will thin out, the noise die down, and you'll get a chance to explore another side of San Antonio. Keep walking for a mile and you'll get to the shops/bars/restaurants at the Pearl Brewery, which is a change of pace from downtown and worth exploring!! Here, you'll find more locals and less of a scene targeting tourists. Check out La Gloria for some Mexican Street food, or Blue Box for drinks.

Or, walk South to check out the mission trail!

Definitely the place to go in San Antonio. A nice breath of fresh air from the concrete jungle that is SA. Some of the best bars in town, as well as some very delicious restaurants and live music. Perfect for all ages too!

The Riverwalk is one of the sights in San Antonio. It's also home to some of the best restaurants and bars in SA that I recommend checking out. Or if you aren't looking for that scene, just take a walk and enjoy the sights. The weather is usually fantastic so it's a lot of fun (unless mid-summer when you'll sweat profusely).

I can't say enough about San Antonio's hidden gem. Boat rides, restaurants, music, truly beautiful surroundings, you easily can and should spend a few hours here if you are in San Antonio.

Otherwise plan a visit to San Antonio soon.

I do not recommend it in the high heat of a Texas summer. But 9-10 months out of the year, the weather is fine.

If you want to have a romantic 24 hours, pay $10 for the river taxi. It's totally worth it. If you're a jogger, hit up the Walk early in the morning before the crowds come. Parents be warned, it isn't a particularly stroller-friendly place. Overall, good food, music everywhere, and a great way to spend the day in San Antonio. Ooh, you should also have dinner on a boat. :)

If you are thinking of visiting San Antonio for couple of days, the best place to stay at, especially if you are a romantic kind of person, is definitely within the area of San Antonio River Walk !! Oh my, i ve stayed there in July and what a great time i had with my family !!!

Loads of shops, restaurants, hotels, street artists, unbelievably beautiful stone bridges and fountains, ducks, birds, tall trees... this is an urban paradise next to San Antonio river. If in San Antonio, THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE !!! 5* all the way !!

A great place to take a walk. beautiful landscaping along the way. many benches to rest and soak in the beauty and people watch. I travel alone here for work but it would be a great place for a romantic weekend

It's the go-to spot in San Antonio. My friends stationed here with the military first turned me on to the place, and it was everything they said it would be. It's the perfect place to take a stroll or grab a drink.

The River Walk is a must see in San Antonio. It is fantastic.

Beautiful!!! My favorite place so far on our cross country road trip!!!
